Scheme - Vista Del Mar (Directed by Sense Hernandez)
Scheme, along side director Sense Hernandez, release the brand new video for Vista Del Mar, which is produced by SRNC's own The Analyst. Scheme and Analyst have an EP in the works; with that being said, Vista Del Mar is just a glimpse of what's to come.
Scheme and Sense Hernandez decided to keep it simple and personal on this one. Vista Del Mar focuses on family and those sacrifices we all have to make it to follow a dream. Scheme wrote and recorded Vista Del Mar with the focus of telling a part of the story; this particular story focuses on his grandma never seeing the ocean, and how he hasn't had the chance to take her, but brought it to her sonically, with hopes of one day making it a reality. Reminiscing over family pictures, Scheme tells his story, and the story of many. Our parents left in pursuit of a dream, and all we want is to see it come true for them.

Chicago Mall Closed After VIolent Black Teen Melee (What?)
FROM CBS 2 CHICAGO: An appearance by the boy band Mindless Behavior on Saturday afternoon was followed by a youth disturbance that closed Ford City Mall and left at least two people with minor injuries.
Chicago police say teens became disruptive in connection with the scheduled appearance of the tween idols, but mall officials insisted the two events were unrelated.
John Sarama, senior general manager of Ford City Mall, says members of Mindless Behavior finished their two-hour meet-and-greet with fans around 4 p.m. and left. The "family event" was attended by about 1,000 people, mostly mothers and girls, he said.
Trouble started at 4:45 p.m., he said, when a group of "older youths" entered the mall and started causing trouble by yelling, running and using foul language. There was minimal damage inside the mall, he said.
"We were lucky we had Chicago police on the premises. They observed what was going on. It was their directive to close the mall early," Samara said.
Witnesses told CBS 2 that fights broke out inside the mall and security was not able to control the situation, prompting police to respond. They say the fighting spilled out into the parking lot, where some vehicles were vandalized.
The Chicago Fire Department said two people, an adult bus driver and a juvenile, were transported in good condition to nearby hospitals, and the CTA temporarily suspended bus service around the mall.
Chicago police said there were multiple arrests, but that offenders likely would be charged with misdemeanors.

J. Cole - Truly Yours (5 Tracks) [HQ]
It’s time. I appreciate you giving me the time I needed to grow, experiment, and find the direction for my 2nd album.. And I have. Along the way I’ve recorded at least 4 albums worth of material, lots of it being unfinished demo versions waiting to be polished up, some of them are great songs and important stories that just won’t make the album (either they don’t fit Sonically, don’t fit Theme, or there’s just not enough space) . Tonight, I want to give you a few of these songs because you deserve them. It’s hard as fuck for me to keep all this music from you for so long, so I know it’s been hard for you to wait. Thank you for your patience. Vibe out to these songs in their raw form, no polish.. just a lot of my soul.. The wait is over. Truly Yours, Born Sinner Truly Yours PS- 1st single coming this week. The album is hands down my best work yet. Can’t wait to share.
J. Cole - Truly Yours
Track List:

This new video, which is directed by Alex Nazari (Tyga's "Make It Nasty," "Rack City," 2 Chainz "Spend It") looks like the best house party you have never been to along with some of the most beautiful women that you'll never get to see.

This latest single continues the run of strong singles from the Gangsta Grillz DJ and his banner year which included hosting mixtapes from Lil Wayne, Jeremih, Meek Mill, and many more.

Visual - JORDAN (Prod. by Loose Cannon)(Artwork Mo Parker)
I was listening to ESPN radio a few days ago and they were talking about Jordan's career, his titles, awards etc. in honor of his 50th birthday. I was inspired. It brought back a lot of memories.
I grew up watching MJ play and I was blessed enough to be able to catch him live a handful of times. This track is about one of those incomparable nights. The artwork is from a newspaper clipping from the Chicago Sun times after the game I am describing.

Skyzoo ft. Talib Kweli - Spike Lee Was My Hero (Official Video) #ReUp #Post
New music video from Skyzoo off his 'A Dream Deferred' album. Skyzoo and Talib Kweli pay tribute to Spike Lee, who also makes a special appearance at the end of the video.
The message in the music is connotative rather than denotative; the “was” in “Spike Lee Was My Hero” refers to Spike’s influence on Skyzoo during the most impressionable moments of his life. The lyrical hook alone speak volumes if you understand it. Spike Lee (1st & 2nd gen. hip-hop culture), dedicated his life’s mission to writing Brooklyn-inspired stories using films which influenced Skyzoo to dedicate his life's mission to writing Brooklyn-inspired stories in this 3rd gen. of hip-hop culture! - Aisha Karimah (Youtube Comment)#Dope

Verse 1st
From ground zero, going for 100 like I want it like its living in my bones, but the mission’s been evicted from home, and now it dwells where ever I quell fear, never sailed here, let the wind wash me up on the shore, looking for signs of intelligent, hustle, relevant, to my heart muscle, more like heart struggles, to let go, of pipe dreams, but holding on to life seems, to small for big hands, trying to get a ticket to the big dance, but even then, maybe they won’t wanna let me in [damn], could be the sin or the love, I forgot to see and take complete advantage of, but either way I’m picking up the damage that was cus damn it was hard fought for like a war between blood and even if I’m the loosing side, there’s no loosing when I’m through to being true to I, and keep rising
Keep rising, every next step leads to another door
Keep rising, every next step is better than before
Verse 2nd
Even when the odds, aren’t even in my favor, trusting that the gods are believing in my flavor, taste it, chi-town mixed with so many different places, so many different times, ancient, my soul is, older than my habits, stronger than my tendencies to take good greens and turn em into cabbage, they said I need a plan, I told em that I have it, said where will I land, told em where my hat is, cus wherever I fly, I stay grounded like bad kids, with good parents, and apparently it must’ve been mine that kept me in line and kept me in touch with something divine it had to be such when the love they shared had me on air prepared to conquer obstacles like they not even there with no fear of the traps that cats hold, stay on the up and up as we reach another plateau, and keep rising

ORIE - For The Stars (Official Video)
The journey to the top isn't always as easy as it seems. "I'm having doubts about pursuing my dreams, and all things hoped for, but really no faith. And everything I wanted it ain't all that it seems...so lord answer my calls and tell me it'd be ok." These are the lyrics of St. Louis native, Hip Hop artist/producer Orie. After taking a year's hiatus dealing with 'real life' after graduating from college, he's back with an official music video from his project Twenty-20 released in 2011, and he's reaching "For The Stars."

Chicago Hip-Hop Takes Center Stage
I'd like to know what Chicago Artist think about this right here. Are Chicago artist too independent? Do we need more direction in the music industry? Should we strive toward a Chicago based Record label, instead of searching out of state? After all, this is our city. We are the city's talent. Isn't it our responsibility to give back to the community that shaped us? I personally feel that this is the monumental time to learn and grow amongst our peers. Home is where the heart is. Some people need to remember that.

John Vietnam Wake - B-boy Tribute Chicago Cypher
John Vietnam Nguyen drowned saving a friends life on August 30, 2012. From September 2nd through the 4th, over 1,000 family and friends gathered to say their final goodbye to a Chicago Hip Hip Legend.
On Monday, September 3rd, a holiday, the family held an open mic session throughout the day where John's friends could pay tribute in song, dance, poetry and art. Several hundred people attended.
Many of John's B-boy friends showed up and were waiting for their flooring to be delivered in order to perform, which didn't happen. Undaunted, these young men went ahead and gave their all, while performing on the carpet of the funeral home. The following is that TRIBUTE.
Free download of John's latest album, Humble & Low Vol. 1 (released April 2012):

FREDO SANTANA : BLOWHIPHOPTV.COM (Chicago)
Chicago's rap scene has exploded in the last two years with talent and a common hunger for an alternative to the street lifestyle. One of the groups at the forefront of this movement has been Glory Boyz Entertainment, a.k.a. GBE, O-Block, OTF along with a host of other acronyms. Together they form one of the most powerful and important collectives the genre has seen to date.
At the first glance of any group member in GBE its easy to pass these youths off as troublesome and reckless, but it's their work ethic and dedication that has allowed them to change not only their mentality but the outlook of other chicago kids looking for something else to give their lives meaning.
"Everythings starting to get new, there weren't any real hot Chicago rappers. It aint just GBE now, there's a lot of other rappers, producers and video directors. It's like a big ol' industry. I see everybody feel like they can do something with their lives. They feel like they can accomplish something. They're lives are actually worth something."
With a long history of drug dealing, gun charges and heavy ties to the street, Fredo initially didnt take music seriously. He would continuosly push off studio sessions with numerous excuses and typical distractions. It wasnt until he saw how serious and focused his cousin Cheif Keef was about his craft that Fredo began to see music as an alternative hustle and focus. After his most recent arrest for illegal possession of a weapon, Fredo made a promise to himself to no longer take the opportunity for granted.
"When i was in jail just recently, a lot of people was writing me. They said Keef got this song "3Hunna" and Soulja Boy just did the remix. I said man when i get out I ain't gonna play around anymore, fuck that shit I'm going straight in... Soon as I got out I went to grab a fifth of Remy, a box of blunts and (I) went straight to Keef crib."
Chicago is a city packed with gangs which could unknowingly be seen as a direct cause to the high number of shootings and homicides in the city. Another potential correlation is that so much gang activity and affiliations can also affect the music scene as some gangs purposely don't listen to one another's music and rappers. Yet the GBE crew has been able to rise above the gang embargo and become a voice for the entire city.
"I was listening to Bump J, (and) he's from Chicago, and he was different especially back in the days. Other gangs werent even listening to other gangs. He was a 4 Corner Hustler and the whole city of Chicago was listening to him. That's what makes us different (too), because everyone listens to us no matter the gang they're in or not."
With a career and a movement on the rise, Chief Keef's current imprisonment can be seen as a step back but Fredo reflects back on his time in prison and ironically relates to Keef's position with a positive outlook,
"100 percent I already know what he's going through and he knows it too ... He was just talking to me on the phone and now I'm talking to him and it's kinda weird. (In) Jail, you gonna learn from that more than anything. But when he get home were gonna turn up!"

J Dilla Bio:
James DeWitt Yancey aka J. Dilla was a Hip Hop producer from Detroit, Michigan who studied under the great Amp Fiddler (Parliament Funkadelic) and went on to become one of hip hop's biggest influences producing tracks with Slum Village, A Tribe Called Quest, Busta Rhymes, D' Angelo, Common, De La Soul, Erykah Badu, Madlib, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Bilal, and many more.
In 2003, Dilla was diagnosed with TTP which led to Lupus, a condition wherein the body's immune system becomes hyperactive and attacks normal, healthy tissue. In 2006, Dilla spent his final months in the hospital where he produced his 3rd solo album entitled "Donuts" which was released on February 7th, 2006 before passing away 3 days later at the age of 32. Donuts became a sonic landmark in the hip hop community. Pitchfork.com recently gave the reissue of the album a perfect rating of 10/10, saying "It's a widely praised favorite for so many people, and yet there's something about Donuts that feels like such an intensely personal statement. Even attempting to engage with it objectively, setting aside the direct experience of the man who made it, doesn't entirely break through its mystique".
